You should be able to press C-c C-e and get an export menu. It should
allow plaintext, html and LaTeX out of the box. For latex, you need to
install a TeX distribution. Texlive is the best choice if you are on
GNU/Linux or windows.
Additionally, you could load ox-odt for odt export ("LibreOffice") or
ox-texinfo for info files. The latter produces very nice manuals IMO; see
e.g. Emacs manuals, the Org manual or the Magit manual (which is produced
via ox-texinfo, last I checked).
Hope it helps,
Rasmus
